Hi spiritchild3,

In case you aren't aware of this, all of the above information and more is available to you on subscription sites (like Ancestry) or pay-per-view sites like ScotlandsPeople at:
http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk
etc, etc.

And much information is available on free sites including FreeCEN and the IGI.

You might like to look at the following post:
